I’ve also read that the Metra 44-UA20 has great reviews and a very low profile, but I’m not sure about durability. Has anyone experienced it?
The Metra is decent for the price, usually around $15, but I found it a bit flimsy. It works, but don’t expect it to last through rough weather.
That’s a bummer. I’m leaning towards the Shark Fin antenna; it’s stylish and holds up well outdoors. Anyone else have feedback on that?
I’ve been using the Shark Fin for about 6 months now. The design is sleek, and the reception is surprisingly good in urban areas!
That’s encouraging to hear! How does it compare to others in terms of installation and price?
Installation was a breeze for me; just a simple adhesive. Price is typically around $30, which is fair considering its quality.

Overall, what do you guys think about long-term durability for these options? I’m worried about replacement costs.
That’s a valid concern. The Stinger and Shark Fin seem to outlast others like the Metra, based on feedback.

I’m always torn between quality and price! It would be ideal to find something that checks both boxes without breaking the bank.
You guys sound like antenna connoisseurs! I just want something that works without popping my hood or using a rocket science manual to install it! Any recommendations?
Haha, I feel you! The Shark Fin could be the one for you – simple install and good performance. Give it a shot!
This has been super helpful! I’m definitely leaning towards the Stinger or Shark Fin based on the consensus here. Thanks, everyone!
